[NTLK] Help! blank screen

OK, I was trying to load full ATA Support so I can make the most of the 32mb
card that arrived yesterday.

Like an idiot I had left the card in the slot without an eject button.
Newton freezes and I can't get the card out. All I can do is remove the
battery pack and open up to get access to the card.

So far so good. Newt reboots with the chime but screen is blank. Backlight
comes on if I hold switch but just a green screen (of death?).

I've tried opening it up again but cannot see anything loose.

Have I killed it?

Any suggestions appreciated
Ian
